A PHP wrapper library for the fantastic FontAwesome icon set. Designed for Laravel, but will work with any PHP project.

fontawesomephp's Issues

QA : Do I need to download fontawesome ?

Hello,

I wonder if I have to download fontawesome and put it into the public directory to make this work ?

Roelof

spin

I found that calling spin once, makes all icons spin, I can't find why.. or where does it,

For example, if I call

{!! FA::spin('circle-o-notch'); !!}

Then all icons called by

{!! FA::icon('whatever`) !!}

Will spin too...

Ability to customize the location of the javascript

Would it be possible to customize where the FA assets gets loaded from?
LIke make

FontAwesomePHP/src/FontAwesome.php

Line 69 in 3d04760

$url = 'pro.fontawesome.com';

a property we can change when we invoke the class.

That way if we want to self-host the FA library we are able to, and not stuck with the FA CDN.

add an addAttr( attributeName, value ) method

Being able to add attributes to an icon would come handy.
For example, those who would like to add a tooltip to an icon.

Add option for aliases?

Would you consider adding the option for aliases, perhaps in a Laravel config file?

For instance you could do icon('blog-post') and alias "blog-post" to "edit".

A simple alias config could be:

return [
    'blog-post' => 'edit',
    'category' => 'tag',
    'approve' => 'check'
];

That way you can use internal terminology and not have to remember which icon you're using for different areas of your site. Or if you want to change the icon for categories to "hashtag" instead of "tag" you can do it easily in one place.

Not working with Laravel5

I tried to use the package for my project, but it still doesn't work with L5.

remove the route closure so we can route:cache

New laravel routes cache is not compatible for closure and there is the route included by default,
can you remove it or use a controller?

Error installing

When trying to install the package, the following error occurred.

Class problem when same icon is used multiple times on the same page

Hi,

I think there is a problem when a same icon is used multiple times on the same page.

If I use this code :
{!! FA::icon('times') !!} {!! FA::icon('times') !!} {!! FA::icon('times') !!} {!! FA::icon('times') !!}

The first cross will be correctly displayed, but not the three others :

The bug is linked to a problem in the source code : the "fas" class is missing in the three last crosses :
<i class="fas fa-times"></i> <i class=" fa-times"></i> <i class=" fa-times"></i> <i class=" fa-times"></i>

And when is add the "fas" class manually in my Chrome, of course, it works.

Is this problem already known ?
How can we fix this ?

Thanks !

Laravel 5 Dev Compatibility

When running the installation of this for the Dev branch (v5) it throws this in Terminal:

- Installation request for khill/fontawesomephp 1.0.* -> satisfiable by khill/fontawesomephp[v1.0.0].
- Conclusion: remove laravel/framework 5.0.x-dev

Any help?

Incompatibility with Laravel 4.1.*

This package is incompatible with recents version of laravel and is stuck to 4.0.* when the last version is 4.1.28 :(

update to 4.4.0

There's a new version, it would be great if we can use the new icons with the default FA::css()
